Immunization of rats with the 260-kilodalton Entamoeba histolytica galactose-inhibitable lectin elicits an intestinal secretory immunoglobulin A response that has in vitro adherence-inhibitory activity.

B L Kelsall1, J I Ravdin.   

Abstract

The 260-kDa galactose-inhibitable lectin of Entamoeba histolytica mediates binding of amebic trophozoites to purified colonic mucins and intestinal epithelial cells. Parenteral immunization of Lewis rats with immuno-affinity-purified lectin with Freund's adjuvant and then intra-Peyer's patch inoculation of lectin with cholera toxin B subunit as adjuvant elicited a significant anti-lectin secretory immunoglobulin A response in the bowel lumen. Purified intestinal secretory immunoglobulin A from three or four immunized animals studied possessed inhibitory activity (P < 0.02) in an in vitro assay of trophozoite galactose-specific adherence to Chinese hamster ovary cells.
